Variables and Assignment - String/Integer Concatenation #711
Description
What is the problem?
Hi,
I wanted to point to a potential issue with the curriculum on concatenating the 'age' and 'first_name' variable. In the following code block
print(first_name, 'is', age, 'years old')
an error is returned due to the mix of data types. I want to recommend potentially writing the age variable as a string to demonstrate concatenation, without jumping too quickly into the different data types, and how to mitigate a TypeError.
